Meet the Wild Lime, Florida’s citrus-scented little secret! This isn’t your average lime, as it doesn’t actually produce limes.
It gets its name from the scent the leaves make when you crush them up. But be careful, this aromatic shrub has spiny branches, similar to a fruit-producing citrus.
Fun fact: This Florida native is a host plant for the Giant Swallowtail Butterflies! If you see a spot on your shrub that resembles bird poop, it just might be one of the caterpillars🐛🦋
